Love, sweet love

A very simple little card today. after white embossing the stamped chevron background on some watercolour paper I added colour by just colouring very lightly each two rows with different colours. I used Inktense pencils then once coloured I added water to smooth out the colouring. Very simple, very easy. Then I die cut the 'Love' die but again I have used the negative from the die cut. Just glued that straight onto a deep crimson piece of card stock.

Added my usual gem which matches the card stock perfectly. Add both photos as one shows the sparkle of the gem better than the other. The sentiment I stamped actually said 'Love, sweet love but I cut off the first love as we already had that. Put back together on backing sheet so can still use as was if I want.

Would make a nice little gift card I think or just a little note to let someone know how loved they are.

INSPIRATION

My inspiration over the years has been a number of different people who's blogs I have followed on a regular basis for many many years.

I have met a number of wonderful women who were always happy to help me with suggestions, links, ideas and sometimes just a kind word.

I love this world I have been welcomed into and there are so many I wish I could thank personally, just to let you know how much I appreciated your help and praise but the list is so long I honestly don't know where to start.

I will always try to acknowledge where I saw an idea or when I have CASEd or CAS. Because I have been looking for so long I am going to have memory gaps or lost links so please forgive me.

If you see something I have made and think you know the link please share with me so I can properly acknowledge the person who inspired me.
